The Expiation for Frequent Oath-Swearing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We move on to another question. This person asks, may Allah protect you: If a man is one who swears oaths frequently, how does he handle the expiation? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
If the oath slips from his tongue and he did not intend to bind himself to it, then he owes nothing; this is considered a slip of the tongue. However, if he intended to bind himself to something, then the expiation is obligatory for him. But if the oaths were all about the same thing and he did not perform the expiation, he only performs one expiation because they overlap. As for oaths about multiple different things, each oath has its own expiation. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
